I did the Brewers Best RIS kit a few months back. Well I've decided I don't like it. It has some nice chocolate notes but otherwise it's thick and syrupy with a lot of residual sweetness. I feel like it would need a lot more alcohol to balance out that sweetness. Right now its around 7% I think.
If I could go back in time I would leave out the maltodextrin (yuck), add several pounds of table sugar for more ABV and use a more attenuative yeast.
The question now is what to do with it? I don't want to give it away because it isn't representative of what I brew usually.
